    There's a keto group too:

    TBH, I think most people having a lot of luck with keto are over 40. We're the age group that has had the time to develop metabolic issues that keto often helps with. ;)

    I'm keto and have been for a few years. I started it to deal with IR and autoimmune issues. I lost my extra 40 lbs pretty quick too. I maintained for a couple of years and then relaxed my carb levels to low carb. My health issues srtarted coming back and I was regaining weight so it was back to keto. I even went to almost zero carb and now I feel even better than I did on keto, plus I lost my regained weight without really trying. The best part is the arthritic pain reductions that I experience. It seems to stop the progression for me, and makes it so I can be more active again (like playing basketball with the team I coach). :)
